[C] [Cm]
[C]
[Eb] [A] [Am] While the music [G] played you walked by candlelight
[Dm] Those San Francisco [Ab] nights were the best in [D] town
[Am] [B] Just by [Am] chance you crossed the [G] diamond with the pearl
[Am] You turned it on the world
That's [Bb] when you [Ab] turned the world [G] around
Did you feel [C] like Jesus?
[Em] Did [F] you realize
[Em] [Dm] That you were [G] a champion [C] in [G] their eyes?
[C] [Eb]
[A] [Am] On the hill the [G] stuff was laced with kerosene
[C] But yours was kitchen [Gm] clean
Everyone stopped to stare at you, [Ab] Technicolor [Am] motorhome
[Dm] Every [Am] apron [Em] had your number on the wall
You [Dm] must have had it all
But [Ab] early on in there [G] and you thought alone
Could you live [Am] forever?
[Em] Could you [F] see the [Em] days?
[F] Could you feel [G] your whole [C] world fall apart [Am] and fade away?
[Dm] [G] Get it along, [Dm] [G] get it along, get y'all to [F] make
[G] Get it along, [F] get y'all to [A] make
[G]
[C]
[Am] Now your patrons [G] have all [Em] left you in the red
[F] Your low [Dm]-ranked friends are dead
[C] This life [Gm] can be [Ab] very [D] strange
[Am] [B] All those [Am] vagabond [Em] freaks who used to paint the face
[F] They've joined the human [C] race
[D] Some things will never [G] change
[C] [G] Find you out in [Am] Vegas
[Em] You [F] are up to [Em] me
[Dm] [G] Look at all the white [C] men on the [Am] street
[G] Get it along, [F] [G] get it along, get y'all to make
[Dm] [G] Get it along, get [Ab] y'all to [G] make

[G] [Am] Clean this mess up else [G] we'll all end up in jail
[C] Those desperate [F] men in scale
Just get it all [Ab] out of here
[Am] Is there gas in [Em] the car?
Yes, there's gas in the [C] car
[Gm] I think the people down [Ab] in the hall know [F] who you [G] are
Careful what [C] you [Am] carry
[G] Doesn't [F] matter why
[Dm]
You are [Em] still an outlaw in their [D] [Am] eyes
[G] Get it along, get it along, get y'all to [F] make
